Wanted on Acrid

Through the gunsmoke and screams of the chaos, Kaelan threw one security guard at a wall then hid in the toilets, while Halfnir decided to use the bar to his advantage and threw a vodka molotov cocktail, causing the two advancing guards to retreat to put themselves out. Zhil was less fortunate, and was knocked out with a stunstick. At this moment Tex emerged from the toilets, disguised as PRQ security, with Kaelan in "custody" and together with another security guard, took the unconscious Zhil out into the streets past the gawking crowd to nearby alleyway. Deftly stealing the guard's stunstick, Tex palmed it to Kaelan, and when they were near the alley, stunned the guard and began stripping her armour and uniform.


Meanwhile, Halfnir made a last stand behind the bar until a security guard leapt over and attacked with a stunstick, and the other two joined in, until overcome by the unfair odds, he was stunned unconscious. First aid from Kaelan soon had Zhil back on his feet, who tried to cause a distraction by running back into the manse and shooting at the glass dome. However, it was too tough to take out and Zhil soon found himself fleeing again pursued by two of the guards. Tex wandered back and managed to persuade the third guard to leave him with Halfnir. Reluctantly, the guard agreed and then joined the pursuit, while Tex rescued Halfnir. The guards tried to run after Zhil and the others, but they were eventually given the slip. The pirates then met up at Fred's lodging to lie low.


Discussions then followed about how to get off the planet. Checking the local news soon discovered that pictures of Zhil, Halfnir and Kaelan were now appearing on digital billboards across the city, with a Cr75,000 bounty on each of their heads. Can they be smuggled out? Fake their own deaths? Or maybe take up mining on Acrid?
